Wild Salmon With Corn Pepper Salsa Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Toss the tomatoes with the corn, vinegar, oregano and 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste, toss again and set aside. Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the salmon, skin-side up, and cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until just cooked through but still rosy in the center, about 3 minutes more. Serve with the corn salad.

Steps:

• Start a charcoal or gas grill; fire should be moderately hot and grill rack about 4 inches from heat source. Or, heat oven to 500 degrees.
• Chop tomatoes and combine them in a bowl with onion, chili, cilantro, lime juice and some salt. Set aside.
• Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. If grilling, rub fish with a little oil as well; put it on grill, skin side down, and let it sit for 4 to 5 minutes, then turn once (don't worry if part of skin sticks to grill). Cook for about 3 minutes more, until medium-rare.
• If roasting, heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat for a minute. Add oil and, a few seconds later, salmon, skin side up. Sear for a minute, then transfer to oven and roast until medium-rare, about 10 minutes. Allow to rest for a minute or so, then remove skin. Turn over and serve, passing salsa at the table.

Steps:

• For the corn salad: In bowl combine corn, sweet pepper, chives, basil, maple syrup, lemon juice, and the 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
• For the salmon seasoning mixture: In small bowl, combine lemon peel, cumin, the 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the black pepper.
• Lightly coat both sides of salmon with nonstick spray.
• Sprinkle seasoning mixture over salmon fillets.
• For CHARCOAL grill, grill salmon fillets on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 8 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, carefully turning once halfway through grilling.
• For GAS grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place salmon fillets on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.
• Sprinkle a bit of paprika on the salmon.
• Mix blueberries into the corn salad and serve grilled salmon with corn salad.
• Garnish with lemon slices and/or fresh basil sprigs.
